Pomegranate Juice Consumption Attenuates Carotid Artery Stenosis
Dietary supplementation with polyphenolic antioxidants to animals was shown to be associated with the inhibition of LDL oxidation and macrophage foam cell formation, and attenuation of atherosclerosis development. We investigated the effects of pomegranate juice (PJ, which contains potent tannins and anthocyanins) consumption by atherosclerotic patients with carotid artery stenosis (CAS) on the progression of carotid lesions and changes in oxidative stress and blood pressure.
